Intro
--------------------| --------------------| --------------------| --------2-2---------| -3-3-3------3-------| --------------3b-1--|
I [E]hear the [/]train a [/]comin'[/] It's [/]rollin' '[/]round the [/]bend,[/]
And [E]I ain't [/]seen the s[/]unshine[/], Since,[/] I d[/]on't know [/]when[/],
I'm [A]stuck in [/]Folsom [/]Prison,[/] And t[/]ime keeps d[/]ragg[/]in' o[E]n,[/] [/] [/] [/] [/]
But that [B7]train [/]keeps a-[/]rollin[/]',[/] on d[/]own to S[/]an [/]An[E]tone.
When [E]I was [/]just a [/]baby[/], My M[/]ama [/]told me, [/]Son[/],
[E]Always [/]be a [/]good boy[/], Don't [/]ever p[/]lay with [/]guns,[/]
But I [A]shot a [/]man in [/]Reno[//], Just[/] to [/]watch [/]him [E]di[/]e,[/] [/] [/] [/]
When I [B7]hear that w[/]histle [/]blowin'[//], I [/]hang my h[/]ead [/]and c[E]ry.
